How do you feel about The Line project in Saudi Arabia?

[Anonymous]

To me, it's creepy as hell...

[Noahzaid]

A worthless project that is it made by an empty mind.

why put people in one place when you can spread them everywhere!

In a time where urban and mega cities are falling apart.

This project is a mirror 🪞 of the dictator who wants to build it.

He thinks people are Ants and they are just there to serve him.

Lets squish these people in a line so that I can have some space for myself.

MHO right here

[Anonymous]

Yeah... nope.

”Come live in a pod with people on top, below, and all around you. Nature will be something outside of the Line, but don’t worry—you’ll never have to leave. You have everything you need in your sector—I mean neighborhood. Who knows, maybe one day you’ll get to move from level 23 to 31.”

What a fucking nightmare man. My god. And how do they “sell” the idea and convince people to live like this?

Pollution and climate change.

You’re building your own prisons people. Goddamn 🤦‍♂️

[Asker]

I couldn’t have said it better myself. also MHO

Ridiculous waste of money. This is why command economies don't work.

[flautistnaturist]

Command economies do work if with the voluntary support of the people in them, and the inspiration of the communal set apart spirit found in these people's mini-settlements:

They have a form of limited theocracy, but it bends to submit itself to less Life-inspired forms of government, and in so doing, seems to me to fail to live up to the standard [ Acts 4:32 of the Holy Bible ] brings to mind to me, although they claim to be re-implementing its basis themselves, in whole rather than in part. Don't go by me. Check out the truth of them in person if it suits you.

It sounds ethereal and cereal. Is it a bad thing? XP

[Asker]

I just think it’s weird

[Curiosity2006]

That's why I wanna see how it goes XDD Could be the first step to a new future!

[flautistnaturist]

It seems intentionally misleading. The "reflection" on the outside of the mirror wall of the city shows the opposite side of the city as though looking through glass rather than staring back at a view of yourself in a desert, trapped outside of the resources the humane thing to do would be to share with you. They're painting a different picture than they are describing in this sense, and likely metaphorically in so doing.

[Asker]

that’s a good point

[jshm2]

It's a novel idea, you dumbass.

The initial idea is to see how innovation and technology can change the direction of sectors without the use of military - as the USA and Russia rely on.

Who needs FEMA camps?

[Andres77]

People will volunteer to go into these prisons and support the destruction of those who don’t, for the environment. Just as quickly as they picked fights with and called the police on whoever didn’t wear a mask.

[Asker]

Yeah to me it’s a signal of the end of times

Its build for Dajjal.
